In Response To: I am kinda Upset that the Marine has a voice. (Last Human Soldier)
I hold the opposite opinion: I consider a game more realistic and immersive if it has a fully developed main character. I thought Half-Life was annoyingly inconsistent in giving Gordon Freeman a stylish appearance and background without a voice to augment it, and at first expected to have the same annoyance in Halo because of the Marathon tradition (although I was sure Bungie would be able to make it a lot cooler than Valve did). However, I imagine it's easier to develop the plot this way, or at least it can be done in more traditional ways.
